Tiffany Cross, Jonathan Capehart Tapped To Host MSNBC Weekend Shows
Source: Marla Aufmuth / Getty Veteran journalists Tiffany Cross and Jonathan Capehart are the new hosts of two new shows on MSNBC. According to Deadline, MSNBC is launching two new weekend shows with political analyst Tiffany Cross and Washington Post opinion columnist Jonathan Capehart. After weeks of competing for the coveted weekend slots on the network, previously held by Joy Reid‘s “A.M. Joy”, both were announced to be filling the slots, with Cross anchoring MSNBC on Saturdays between 10 a.m. and noon, while Capehart leads Sundays in the same time period. Both anchors revealed in an interview that they want to build on the efforts of Reid, whose show created a new weekend habit for curious MSNBC viewers eager to gain perspective on the headlines. “The people w...
How You Doin?: The Trailer for Wendy Williams’ Biopic With Lifetime Is Juicy AF
Source: Astrid Stawiarz / Getty Lifetime is blessing fans with a biopic of Wendy Williams and the accompanying trailer looks like the flick is holding nothing back from her controversial life story. Starring The Oval actress Ciera Payton as the messy media maven, the film chronicles her ascent from her early days as an ambitious radio jockey to her daytime TV show, and tackles all the juicy drama in between it all. Fans will recognize stories of her legendary radio interview with the late Whitney Houston, her battle with coke addiction, the infamous on-air fainting spell, and her failed marriage with ex-husband and known philander, Kevin Hunter. That story could probably have its own Lifetime film treatment. If you recall, Hunter was involved in a longtime relationship with a mistres...
TOKiMONSTA Drops Surprise Album “Oasis Nocturno (Instrumentals)”
After treating her fans this year to not one, but two full length albums, Oasis Nocturno and Oasis Nocturno (Remixed), Los Angeles born and raised artist TOKiMONSTA is closing out 2020 with yet another version of her entire original album, this time titled Oasis Nocturno (Instrumentals). Released December 4th via Young Arts Records, the project takes all 12 tracks from Oasis Nocturno and strips them down to just their dreamy electronic compositions. The resulting versions add a new dimension to their aurally complex soundscapes, emphasizing the raw, minimalistic beauty made possible purely by instruments and synthesizers. Tracks that previously hosted vocalists that stand strongly on their own include “Get Me Some” featuring Drew Love and Dumbfoundead, ...
Monki’s Nostalgic Single “Queen of Hearts” Transports Listeners to a 1980s Nightclub
The versatile professional soccer player and DJ/producer, Monki, has dropped another big track following her debut on Mark Knight‘s Toolroom Records earlier in the year. Titled “Queen of Hearts,” the new single was released on her own label &Friends. In a tribute to the sounds of the 80s, the waning vocals and synths—which sound like they’re from a sci-fi VHS—combine to create a melody dripping with nostalgia. “Queen of Hearts” is all tied together by a stomping beat that could easily soundtrack a nightclub from Miami Vice. Having played for English football club Dulwich Hamlet FC, Monki juggles careers as a professional soccer player, international DJ, label boss, and award-winning podcaster, among other ventures. Alongside...

MAX CAVALERA Says New SOULFLY Songs Have An ‘Out-Of-Control’ Spirit About Them
In a new interview with the “Sappenin’ Podcast With Sean Smith”, Max Cavalera once again confirmed that he and his son Zyon have commenced the songwriting process for the next SOULFLY album, to be recorded in 2021. “Right now, [we’re] in the early stages of writing,” he said (hear audio below). “It’s just riffs — we’re just doing riffs. And the cool thing about Zyon, the way he plays drums, is he’s a bit like a wild animal — he has no restraint, man, and he just unleashes on the drum kit. Pure, pure brutality power drumming, and I love that. So that takes me back to a lot of the early records that I like — a lot of the old ENTOMBED stuff and CARCASS and NAPALM DEATH; out-of-control shit. So I think we have that kind of spirit goin...
DAVID SILVERIA Hasn’t Listened To A Single KORN Song From Albums He Doesn’t Appear On
In an new interview with Pierre Gutiérrez of Hablas ROCKas, ex-KORN drummer David Silveria, who left the band nearly a decade and a half ago, was asked for his opinion on the KORN albums that were recorded after his departure from the group. He responded (see video below): “I have not listened to a single song full through since I left KORN — honest to God. I’d be pulling up places in my car and on the station there would be KORN, and I would just turn it off. I can’t name one KORN song [from the albums I didn’t play on].” He continued: “No offense to KORN — I don’t hold any grudges or whatever — but I just haven’t listened to any of their music since I’ve been gone… It wasn’t out of spite or anger or anything like that. For some ...

ANTHRAX’s SCOTT IAN Teams Up With KHDK ELECTRONICS For ‘Sgt D’ Pedal
ANTHRAX guitarist Scott Ian has partnered with KHDK Electronics for the launch of the Sgt D pedal. Named after the cigar-chewing alter-ego from Scott‘s mid-1980s crossover thrash project STORMTROOPERS OF DEATH (a.k.a. S.O.D.), the signature boost/preamp pedal is limited to 250 units worldwide and comes in an enclosure illustrated by Kurz Daniel. David Karon of KHDK says: “Scott knew what he wanted — a ruthlessly vicious pedal that captures his S.O.D. amp tone. Of course, the absolute maniac that he is, he also wanted it to work as a magical booster and make even a shitty $50 amp sound like a monster. He then requested that the pedal have wheels and a built-in drone and follows him around whilst humming the ‘Knight Rider’ theme, but our engineer Antonin Salva drew th...
Dr. Dre’s Daughter Says She Hasn’t Spoken To Him In 17 Years
Source: Raymond Boyd / Getty Dr. Dre‘s personal life has surely been getting much more attention than he’d like this year. Recently, the Death Row Records founder’s daughter has revealed she hasn’t spoken to him in 17 years. That’s a might long time to hold a grudge. According to the Daily Mail, Dre’s eldest, 37-year-old daughter, LaTanya Young, hasn’t seen or spoken to her dad since she was 20. ‘ LaTanya Young, 37, said that she desperately wants a relationship with the hip hop legend, 55, and insisted she doesn’t want anything from him except a father-daughter relationship, saying: ‘Money is not what I want, I feel better doing it on my own.’ She admits she feels ‘displaced’ by not seeing her father in nearly a decade, saying: ‘I really just want to have closure. I just want to be able t...
Eminem Makes ‘SNL’ Cameo in Pete Davidson’s Christmas ‘Stan’ Spoof: Watch
SNL cast member Kate McKinnon appears in the sketch as Dido, who delivered the iconic hook on the original song. “He can’t buy it himself because he lost his job because he was stealing from his boss,” McKinnon’s Dido sings in the parody. SNL‘s Bowen Yang also appears in “Stu,” hilariously portraying a piano-playing Elton John, who famously performed alongside Eminem at the Grammy Awards in 2001. The darkly comical skit ends with grainy video footage of Slim Shady himself kneeling by a decorated Christmas tree and opening up an unexpected gift from Santa. “To Shady, from Santa. That’s crazy, a PS5? I didn’t even ask for this,” Eminem says. “I guess Shady must’ve been a good boy this year. Sorry, Stu, you f—...
